Who needs story in such a beautiful action game. If only there was some more freedom of movement and actions.
It's fun to watch and play, and for the first 4-5 hours you're not yet bored it's REALLY good fun. Eye candy in graphics, animation, fighting, enemies coming toward you. Just treat like an action or an fps without a story, and try to tolerate the spanish accent of the Vampire prince and his father :P
Makes you wonder if ENcamblossa is Iberic after all...
And to be honest I played this more than I've played the previous KUF for XBoX which was strategic too, felt that handling those soldiers and archers was somewhat boring and taking time from the real action.
Only REALLY bad thing which sinks it (by no means is it the lack of a good compelling story something to duel over), is the linear feel it has through most of it and when I say linear I mean the pretty narrow linear way.
